MR> if i pay a kid to cut the grass and instead he goes online and pushes a MR> button and my grass is cut, why don't i just push that button instead? What is stopping you doing it yourself? I'm not arguing you MUST employ the kid to cut the grass and press a button. If you can do it yourself, then just... do it yourself! But lets say you pay him and he comes and presses a button, you still owe him. Are you just bitter he didn't struggle, or that you didn't think of it? You got EXACTLY what you paid for, cut grass. You paid for cut grass. He came, did something, and you have cut grass. The "something" is irrelevant. --- MultiMail/Linux v0.52 ■ Synchronet ■ MS & RD BBs - bbs.mozysswamp.org .
